JOHN A. LOGAN'S SON.
lis Experience at West Point Academy.
T,v,on~n nf Mama

His Experience at West Point Academy.
A Change of Name.
S1Do you ever hear of boy changing his
name9 Of course girls do--when they marry
some other girls brother--but it is usual that
boys keep the name they are given at birth
to the end of their days. Young Logan was
an exception, however. When he was in
West Point academy he was known as
Manning Logan; but when his father, the ia
NOUS general and senator. died last winter,
he changed his name to that of his father
John A. Logan This young man went into
West Point about the time his father was
nominated for vice president, and exhibited
considerable elation and high silk hat.
He was promptly relieved Of both. A squad
of third class men seized him one night,
perched him upon the mantelpiece, turned
coal scuttle over his head, put water bucket
on that, sulmounted by cavalry helmet,
with the high hat crowning the edifice. Thus
accoutered he was made to sing, "Im Getting
Big Boy Now" until he pleaded for mercy.
This was not wholly effectual, though, and
day or two afterward tall and feroclous
looking first class man went up to him and
told him be was wanted to join theatrical
company Ten minutes afterward little
Logan, completely terrorized, was sitting In
the first class mans room sewing the missing
buttons ON a dilapidated jacket, while its
owner assured him that he was bound to
make a great hit as the funny man OF the
theatre.
Years ago hazing was very common at
West Point, but is now pretty nearly abol-
ished. The officers of the academy have tried
hard to wipe it out entirely, and have about
lal ba
now to do is occasionally to stand on their
heads in one of the streets of camp or some
small penalty like that OF course, If the
officer of the day should see the older cadet
compelling the younger one to do this the
former would be promptly punished. Some
times they are caught, and then trouble and
dement's follow Another penalty is to COM
pei the young cadet, when the table stewards
in the mess hail are not looking, to put the
butter remaining on the plate at the close OF
the meal in their pocket. The best way In
such cases is for the young cadet to submit to
the Joke as well as he can. 1t is the easiest
way.
Young Logan did not graduate at the
academy. He there nearly two years and
was well liked by his companions, but some of
his wild oats were of a rank variety and had
not been SOWn, anu 50 Sottel iiu vi, poAoi = ~
entered the academy. West Point Is bad
place to SOW wild oats, as Logan and many
young fellows have found to their sorrow.
The senator's son was dismissed one day. HIS
mother felt very badly over his disgrace, but
he never seemed to mind it, 1t was very
wrong of him to cause his mother pain, but
he has ample opportunity to make amends,
and as he has now sowed his oats and become
fine young fellow, he will no doubt make
full amends Philadelphia Times.
